Looks like i was too optimistic.  There actually seem to still have
other problems.  I tested four cases, with fresh cvs checkout: 

  1. English texts only
  2. Chinese texts only, aligned in source
  3. Chinese texts only, not aligned in source
  4. a mix of English and Chinese texts

Only case 1 and 2 seems to format info outputs nicely.  Outputs in case
3 and 4 are rather poor, as shown in attached image.  I also attached
the test file.

春归何处？寂寞无行路。
若有人知春去处，唤取归来同住。
春无踪迹谁知？除非问取黄鹂。
百啭无人能解，因风飞过蔷薇。
